The Laptop Finger Trap

Who needs passwords when you can have this laptop lock? If your room mate or some jerk in the office likes using your laptop without your permission, then set a trap for those naughty fingers with Tino Dobra's Laptop Finger Trap!

The Finger Trap is attached to a Kensington Lock when the laptop is unattended. A screen saver tells passers-by that the laptop is locked, just in case they can't figure out that putting fingers on the scrolling pad will spring the trap.

It is a concept design that merits production for it is a highly visual way of telling inquisitive people to buzz off. The designer is a student at Universitat Der Kunste, Berlin, Germany where several of them were dreaming up different notebook accessories.
